The verdict

Fire runs at 348% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Municipal Government workplace, earning a grade F.

Fire: 11.1 TCR = 348% of Municipal Government BLS 3.2 · 7y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Fire safety composite

Fire scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 54% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 42%), blended into one 0-100 breakdown against same-industry peers. A missing measure drops out and redistributes its weight rather than deflating the score. This is a per-dimension breakdown, distinct from the single letter grade above it (which weights TCR alone against the BLS industry benchmark).

Fire (84 employees, TCR 11.1) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 54 employees and a TCR of 9.8

Fire has more employees than the Municipal Government median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 9.8. Workforce size and injury rate do not always move together within the same industry -- some of its smaller peers run higher rates than its larger ones, and vice versa.
